Brief Exercise 21A-11
Assume that IBM leased equipment that was
carried at a cost of $97,000 to Crane Company. The term of the
lease is 5 years December 31, 2016, with equal rental payments of
$29,955 beginning December 31, 2016. The fair value of the
equipment at commencement of the lease is $127,000. The equipment
has a useful life of 5 years with no salvage value. The lease has
an implicit interest rate of 9%, no bargain purchase option, and no
transfer of title. Collectibility of lease payments for IBM is
probable. Assume the sales-type lease was recorded at a present
value of $127,000.
Prepare IBM’s December 31, 2017, entry to record the lease
transaction with Crane Company. (Credit account titles

5,275.)
1.) 31 dec 2017
Cash a/c .......dr. $29,955
To lease recievable........cr. $21,221
To Interest income.........cr. $8,734
(Being the lease payment recieved and intrest earned)
The amount of payment recieved is mentioned @ $29,955 to be constant throughout the lease period.
The amount transferred to lease recievable is the net amount after interest earned.i.e. $29,955 - Intrest income
Intrest Income - (Lease value at the time of start of lease - paymnet made in the last year) * Implicit interest rate
= ($127,000 - $29,955) * 9% = $8,734
